Hi ,
How do i schedule a job that can send emails at intervals of time
using backgroundrb and rails
For testing When i hit the controller i'm able send the emails.
but that is not i intend to do .....
I want to use backgroundrb and rails in which i'll schedule a job
for every 5 minutes/ 1 minute or so..... to send an email
But when i write .yml file as given by the
http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org/
I'm unable to send emails ....... Infact my backgroundrb_server.log
shows that scheduler is not even get triggered for every minute or
so
I've no clue y the Scheduler is not working for every 1 minute or
so
........ Any help is appreciated !!!!
